HOUSTON-A father fatally shot a teen boy he found in his daughter's bedroom early Thursday morning, deputies said.

Investigators said the father accused in the shooting woke up to find the male teen in his 16-year-old daughter's bedroom.

According to detectives, the 16-year-old daughter let the 17-year-old boy into the house and then sneaked him into her bedroom.

Her younger brother went to say good night and saw two feet sticking out under the bed, detectives said. He then went to get his father.

The father walked in and asked questions, but his daughter claimed to not to know the male teen. The father then called 911, but an argument ensued with the teenage boy.

The father told police the boy dropped his hands as if to grab something, so he opened fire. The teen died at the scene.

No other injuries were reported, but the father was transported to the hospital to be checked out for medical reasons as he complained that he was not feeling well. Constables said the man appeared to be on several medications.

Neighbors of the family were stunned.

"Oh my God! They just moved inā?¦about a week ago. They just moved in here," one neighbor said. "No, never spoke to them. Never even seen them. I saw the moving trucks, but I never heard a peep out of them."

Charges had not been filed Thursday. When the investigation is completed, the findings will be presented to the Harris County Grand Jury for consideration.
